Creating rlTalk (Talking Script) in CrazyTalk
Although one is able to create voice scripts (voices + facial expressions) in iClone, for creating exquisite and detailed voice scripts, it is recommended to do so by means of CrazyTalk, especially version 8 or above because Auto Motion feature can quickly generate facial expressions from an audio voice track.
- Launch CrazyTalk version 8 or above.
-
Create a 3D actor (recommended) and then add voice to it.Note:
- Please note that the actor will have expressions and motions driven by the voice because of the default Auto Motion.
- Using the feature within CrazyTalk in order to fine-tune the expressions and motions of the actor. Please refer to the CrazyTalk 8 Online Manual for more information.
